I have decided that I want to get better, not just run, so the last few runs, I have tried pushing myself a bit more. Today, the plan was to up my pace a couple of blocks at a time. I felt so good after the first couple blocks that I kept a good steady (faster) pace for the first couple of miles. Even on the hills. I have never done that. Then I slowed down for a few blocks and up'd the pace again for the rest of the run. I felt great and will definately keep doing that.
I should have worn my garmin today but that is just another shoulda, woulda, coulda thing.
Anyway, it was a much faster run than normal, and i enjoyed it tons!!!
Happy to be out there again!!! | | Add Comment |

I pushed Anna today, for the first time in awhile. That is always harder, but a good workout. There was a pretty good head wind after I turned around which made it pretty windy the whole way home. It kicked my butt. (Pathetic for a 4 mile run, I know.)
Anyway, out to the Laverkin Stake Center and back. It was a good run.

Same 7 as last week. It was chilly this morning and a bit windy. I felt a bit slow today and didnt' feel like I had much juice. Although, when I got home it hadn't taken me much longer than last week.
Glad to be running!!! | | Add Comment |
| | Up and ran with my dad this morning, who runs faster than I do. I am fairly certain he slowed a bit for me, but we still ran faster than I normally do. It felt good to up the pace a little. Good run, a little breezy a few times, but all in all, great to be outside and doing it!!! | | Add Comment |

Phoenix Pioneer Run (3.1 Miles) 00:26:09, Place overall: 95, Place in age division: 2 | | Nice overcast morning today. We are in Oregon this weekend and my brother found us a run to do. There was a good turn out and they said it was the longest running local run. There were a lot of High School people and alot of records set also. My brother ran the 9 miler and started 1/2 hour before me, but we finished together. He could have beat me and should have to have gotten a better time, but he waited for me to let me win. That was fun. He is alot faster than me so there is no way we would have ever finished together. It was a good run | | Add Comment |
